UPDATE! UE 5.4.1 and this still WORKS! one thing is different though. on the first step when he changes the "blendable Location" the option he picks is no longer available. i chose "scene color before dof" and it still worked ! all the other options give you shaky lines!!!

After working through the exercise in this video, I went to sleep and dreamed about shaders. When I woke up, I suddenly realized I understood the Material Editor and had arrived at the solution to my own little shader problem in my sleep. The only problem is that when I'm talking myself through what I need to do, my internal monologue is all in a thick French accent now.

I've been programming and developing games in various languages and engines for the better part of 10 years, I don't often comment on tutorials but I'm halfway through and I just have to stop by and say that it's absurd that this is free content, if you're on the fence about watching the video because it's long, don't be. Set aside a couple hours of your day, make a coffee, and watch the whole thing. The instructional quality of this video is leagues above the average tutorial, calling it a "tutorial" honestly feels wrong as it's higher quality than many courses I've paid for. Evans' clearly understands all the technical aspects of the concepts he's demonstrating and develops them in a scalable and modular way that's appropriate for an industry-level implementation. This isn't some quick hack to achieve a passable result published by an overworked indie dev, this is how a feature like this would be implemented in a AAA title. To top it off, Evans' is an exceptionally skilled instructor, he doesn't just show you how to "make it work". Over this hour and a half he skillfully weaves explanations, demonstrations, models, and diagrams into his setup so that you actually understand how everything is working and why he chose to do it this way. After watching this video once, I'm confident I could scale and debug this shader with ease regardless of the project. If i watched it again, I'm confident I could build it from scratch without referencing the video again. Amazing video, great content. Make the time to watch it.

Since you helped me, I'll help you as well. If you hold these buttons in a shader graph when clicking, it'll create the following useful nodes for you (I see you know some of them, but comment readers may not so just listing them all): S= Scalar Parameter. 1= Scalar Constant 2= Vector 2 Constant 3= Vector 3 Constant V= Vector 4 Parameter F= Material Function Call (defaults to last used but also calls last edited if the graph was open this session) L= Lerp (linear interpolate) I= If M= Multiply A= Add D= Divide E= Power (exponent) B= Bump Offset R= Reflection Vector T= Texture Sample U= Texture Coordinate (think "UV" to remember it easily.) N= Normalize Lastly, to make the center line of the graph easy to see, go to: Edit > Editor Preferences > (GENERAL TAB) > Appearance > "Graphs" Subsection > Grid Center Color. Can also just search "color" within editor preferences. I set mine to green, easier to navigate around larger graphs this way by knowing, at all times, exactly where my center axis is. Also helps me when opening old graphs I don't have recently memorized: Quickly identify where the graphs "starts."

Really fantastic tutorial. Since I don't see any other comments about this, I wanted to mention that this post process effect really highlights a problem with Temporal AA (which, at least for me, is UE5's default AA method). On higher settings the artifacts might not be so bad, but on low settings (which I use to ensure my editor is performing well) they are quite awful. Temporal AA uses past frames to modify the final scene texture, and so when you create strict boundaries representing "lines" cosmetically, these can be shredded and smeared by the anti-aliasing effect when a camera is moving/turning or a scene changes rapidly. It's not a problem with the post process method itself (unless there is a way to fix this with pipeline flags similar to the one specified @4:00), but it did make the outlines look terrible on my system until I switched to a different anti aliasing method (Project settings > Rendering > Default Settings > Anti-Aliasing Method). I hate Temporal AA anyway, so I'd recommend everyone use this as one more reason to switch to a nicer AA method.

Hey Evan - really wonderful breakdown on the whole process. I especially love the way you organize with material functions, extremely helpful process! I'm implementing this and I'm noticing that the max and the min thickness for the outlines can not go below .5 without the lines disappearing. I'm pretty sure I've followed it correctly, I've checked it a few times... any ideas? Also I've noticed that on the thickness modulation as the lines recede into the distance there are almost steps between line weights changes - the line weight does not gradually blend from say a 5 to a .5 on a cylinder that starts close to camera and is aimed at the horizon. Again great tutorial and wonderful way to build this shader. Very helpful
@evansbohl
Жыл бұрын
Hi Jason! I'm so sorry for the late reply! As for your first question : actually, the thickness of the outlines defines the number of pixels you want it to have. Knowing this, the thickness should stop getting smaller when you go below 1. And for the thickness modulation problem, unfortunately I won't be able to give you a solution for this because I had the same problem and I don't really know how to fix it 😅 In my case, I usually have a single step happening at mid distance, but since it wasn't a big problem for me, I left it as is ^^ Anyway, thanks for your feedback and I hope you'll find a solution to your problem!

I'm only partway through the video, but at the part where you create the edge detection shader for normals, instead of using distance (which has square roots), it's faster and more accurate to use dot product. A dot product is the correct way to compare normals. It will give you 1 for normals that are equal. And -1 for normals that face away. So you can use "one minus" node on each before adding them or just do 4 - total after you've added them all up. You will get more accurate results.
@alienrenders

Something else to be aware is that if you use the stencil buffer, that actor will ALWAYS be drawn no matter what. It will never get culled. And the order in which they get drawn in the stencil buffer is completely random. This means that if you have two actors overlapping, the outline color from the actor that is further away can bleed through on the outline of the actor in front.

@@alienrenders Won't the second bug you've pointed out be fixed by what he's done at 1:01:43 ? Outline is drawn only if SceneDepth is equal to CustomDepth, so if something else is placed between the camera and custom depth object it's not supposed to bleed through.

@@kamilbeben9900 The second bug is explicitly when both objects have outlines. You can no longer guarantee what order the stencil buffer is written. The custom depth buffer cannot help here.

@@alienrenders I see. I had no luck reproducing this and haven't found anything in the docs, but that doesn't really mean anything as unreal documentation can be extremely lacking at times. Are you speaking from experience, or have you read about stencil buffer behavior somewhere? If the latter, could you please point me where to look at? I'd like to have a better understanding of what I'm working with.

Hy, to someone that are using it and grass output to put grass in world... since grass not have same way to enable custom depth, you can just subtract the scene texture : opacity, from outlines to exclude grass from effect (since the material from them are masked... and these remove any masked or translucent materials from receive outlines) ;)

Thank you so much for this in depth tutorial about outlines, I followed till about 1 hour because I only need single color outline in this project.... I know I'll come back for multi color in the future!! Everything worked fantastic! However after I packaged the game, the packaged version has a much thicker outline than I saw in PIE 😂 Do I have friends having this same issue? What might be the reason for this behavior? Thank you again Evans for the great tutorial!!

Great video, but it would be great if you can get the outlines to work with Anti-aliasing.. to be they look like they are 1 bit, so i get jaggies where the thresholds are met, but it would be nice if you could control the edge quality better. (Im not thinking this is performant, btw, just the best possible look for offline rendering etc).
